WordPress

I was thinking about using Drupal as a Content Management System (CMS), but the learning curve is a little steep. >__<# I looked over WordPress and it looks like it could be a starting point for simple CMS. I loaded up a Windows, Apache, MySQL, PHP (WAMP) stack with WordPress on it. I guess I need to learn how to do custom themes.
